It has been a while since I last made an under quilt so I was delighted with how this one has turned out.
Category: Gear (Page 94 of 135)
I’m a big fan of Alpkit and the kit they produce. Who knows how many Alpkit stuff sacks and dry bags I own! However they do produce so much more. The boys and girls at Alpkit have kindly sent a Manta headtorch over for me to check out.
The timing on this is excellent as it arrived (lovingly packaged) just in time for an overnight bikepacking trip.
The headlamp was packed away in my camelback until I was at my overnight camp. I used the red LEDs for light to maintain my night vision. The coverage by these small red lights was superb and I could easily move around camp without doing myself a mischief.
One of the biggest areas that is overlooked when getting a video/camera setup for trips out is the speed of the your SD card. Many ask what is the best SD card for my GoPro camera? The GoPro HD Hero3 and 3 Plus series of cameras support Micro SD cards up to 64GB.
The choices of GoPro Hero 3 And 3 Plus micro SD cards is huge. Hopefully my trial and error over the last few years will point you in the right direction.
I have updated this post to ensure that the best cards possible are identified. This post also now contains references to the Hero 4 range of cameras.
The GoPro Hero 3 – white, silver, black and the even newer newer GoPro 3+ range use Micro SD Cards. Micro SD cards are roughly the size of a mobile phone sim card and are often supplied with an adaptor to allow them to be used within tech that uses full size SD cards.
